Barry men’s basketball adds Albany transfer Anders Haas

Barry University’s men’s basketball team, which will return four starters plus its fourth-leading scorer next season, has made an interesting addition to its roster.

He’s 6-1 guard Anders Haas, a transfer from Division I Albany, which beat Mount St. Mary’s in the play-in round of the 2014 NCAA Tournament before losing to eventual Final Four team Florida.

Barry coach Butch Estes called Haas “a gifted offensive player,” and that was evidenced by his shooting percentages at Albany — 34 on three-pointers and 85 on free throws. He was seventh on the team with a 3.0 scoring average in just 6.4 minutes per game.

Haas, who is originally from Denmark, has moved around a lot — two years of high school ball in Oakland, Calif., one year of junior college at State College of Florida-Manatee, and then Albany before Barry. He is looking for more playing time.

Also in the mix is 6-5 wing Adrian Gonzalez, who averaged 11.5 points as a freshman.

Barry had previously signed a 6-0 point guard, Hunter Osceola. He will be a freshman this fall after helping Plantation American Heritage win a state title in March.
